If you have enjoyed learning GeoGebra, Compass and Ruler, Geometer’s Sketchpad, and Wolfram Alpha, and other free math software, you might want to check out the Peanut Math Software package from Philip Exeter University. Some software included in the package also include games and puzzles. The package includes the following software:
- Wingeom - for high-precision geometric constructions in both two and three dimensions
- Winplot - a general-purpose plotting utility, which can draw (and animate) curves and surfaces presented in a variety of formats.
- Winstats - provides access to scatter plots, curve fitting, histograms, statistical data, and standard theoretical probability distributions. It performs many statistical tests and calculates confidence intervals. It simulates dealing cards, rolling dice, sampling candy, taking random walks, and tossing darts, needles and coins
- Winarc - a collection of game subprograms, currently including Life, Krypto, Boxes, Hex, Rubik, Mazes, Pegs, Bishops, the Loyd 15 puzzle, Spaceship, and Sudoku
- Winfeed - a fractal exploration program. It allows the user to explore functional iteration, including Mandelbrot and Julia sets, ferns and snowflakes, web and bifurcation diagrams, and more.
- Windisc - a collection of subprograms that deal with discrete-math topics such as apportionment, voting power, voting methods, bin-packing, and network analysis (traveling salesman problem, map-coloring, etc).
- Winmat - allows the user to calculate and edit matrices, and solve standard linear algebra problems. The program operates in real, complex, and integer mode.
- Wincalc - allows the user to calculate integers with millions of digits.
- Winwordy - a collection of word puzzles.
All the software mentioned above are distributed for free.
